    98 trani problems

    When you say main electrical connection, you are referring to where the internal trani wiring harness meets the external harness? The TCC solenoid tested good according to trani shop that did the valve kit repairs. I don't have the scan tool to do the pressure tests you are referring to. Which...

    98 trani problems

    I talked to a friend at my local rad shop about rebuilding the part of the rad that the trani cooler lines goes through and he said he can no longer get the kits to repair it. We are living in a disposable market now. He said if I wanted to do an air test to check for leakage it would take a...

    3" downpipe,where in Can??

    Warpspeed must have stopped using the place in Red Deer as their Canadian depot. I bought mine about 2 years ago and when I had it shipped to me via DHL, it came with a shipping invoice from the shop in Red Deer,Alberta.

    98 trani problems

    So, I picked up the valve body for my trani today and was given some potentially good news and bad news. The good news is the two valve kits they swapped out had play in them, which could have let enough oil to bypass causing the OD issue. They also told me the gasket that goes between the...

    3" downpipe,where in Can??

    I think I paid $325USD for the whole 4" exhaust including downpipe. I would have to look at the invoice, but I believe that also included the 2-1/2 crossover

    3" downpipe,where in Can??

    I bought my warpspeed 4" exhaust system from the US, but they have a place in Red Deer that they ship out of to avoid custom fees and hassles. I am not sure of the policy of naming businesses on this forum, so if you want to PM me I will tell you where it came from and you can call the and see...

    98 trani problems

    I have a 4l80e trani in my truck and recently started having problems with the OD. After the trani starts to warm up (around 150 degrees) I lose OD and it starts to shift hard from 1-2 and 2-3. When it cools down I get it back. It is starting to do this now even before the temperature starts to...

    4L80e Problem

    I had my truck to the tranny shop today and they said it didn't appear mt TC was locking up even before it gets warm and I lose OD. They also said that if my shift sensor is the original it could possible be the problem, but it has probably been changed with over 300k on truck and it most...

    Starter Bracket!

    I just finished putting a starter in my 98. The support bracket bolt to the block was only half tight and the starter end never had a nut on it so although it did provide some support it could have helped in the end bearing disintegrating. The block bolt is 8mm x 1.25 x 18mm long. and the...

    stuck GP

    How can you tell what glow plugs you have. I don't see 9g, 11g, or 60g on them. They are ac delco and the only numbers I see are 100 271 107. I thought 11g were not supposed to swell. I guess that is not the case from your experience.

    Oil Pressure Sensor Issues, Brand recommendations needed

    I mounted my OPS on the firewall behind the engine with a few brass fittings and a new grease hose when I put in a new IP. Now if I need to change it, it will only take about 5 minutes.
